AYUDA PARA EL COMERCIO 
China ofrece un programa de 400.000 dólares EE.UU. para los 
países menos adelantados 
El 14 de julio de 2011, China anunció que aportará 400.000 dólares EE.UU. para la creación de un 
programa destinado a ayudar a los países menos adelantados (PMA) a participar de manera más 
eficaz en la Organización Mundial del Comercio y, en el caso de los que todavía no son Miembros, 
a negociar su adhesión. 
Esta iniciativa, conocida como "Programa de China para los PMA y las adhesiones" (Programa de 
China), se acordó con la OMC mediante un memo rando de entendimiento que firmaron el 14 de 
julio de 2011 el Director General de la OMC, Pascal Lamy, y el Embajador de China ante la OMC, 
Yi Xiaozhun.  Se trata de la cuarta contribución financiera de China en el marco de la Ayuda para 
el Comercio desde 2008. 
"Esta contribución demuestra el firme compromiso de China de ayudar a otros países en desarrollo 
(especialmente los menos adelantados) a aprovechar al máximo el sistema multilateral de comercio e integrarse mejor en la economía mundial", dijo el Director General Lamy.  "La adhesión 
a la OMC ha reportado importantes beneficios a muchos países en desarrollo, incluida la propia 
China.  Acogemos con satisfacción esta generosa y oportuna donación, que coincide con el 10º aniversario de la adhesión de China a la OMC." 
La finalidad del programa es reforzar la participación de los países menos adelantados en las 
actividades de la OMC y facilitar la adhe sión de los que todavía no son Miembros. 
El Programa de China financiará las pasantías de los candidatos de países menos adelantados en la 
División de Adhesiones de la OMC, que se ocupa de los países que solicitan adherirse a la 
Organización.  También financiará una mesa redonda sobre la adhesión a la OMC y la participación de delegados de países menos adelantados en aquellas reuniones de la OMC que para ellos 
revistan carácter prioritario. 
En palabras del Sr. Yi, "China participa activamente en la cooperación Sur-Sur con otros países en 
desarrollo en el marco del sistema multilateral de comercio.  Los PMA, el grupo más vulnerable de 
la OMC, necesitan urgentemente nuestra ayuda y se rán el principal beneficiario de este reciente 
programa de China.  Una vez más, esta contribu ción demuestra la firme adhesión de China al 
objetivo de desarrollo común con los PMA, y su permanente apoyo a la Iniciativa de Ayuda para el 
Comercio de la OMC." PRESS/632
